early this morning. The stock ia an en-
tire loss, and the building Is irreparably
injured, the floors having fallen through
The fire was also attended by at least two
fatalities, ~ -
Pipeman Michael Burns was standing
In a fourth.story window when a sheet o]
flame came out, enveloped him, and he
fell into tho blazing mass inside.
John Heberlie, Lieutenant Of Engine SO,
was climbing ladder to the second story
when 1t slipped and he fell to tho aide.
walk, crushing his skull.
Captain Fred Reese had bis leg broken
by falling stone.
The fire was discovered at $500 o'clock
by night watchman. When the firemen
arrived the fire WAS in the centre Of the
building, but even before the hose could
be brought TO bear upon 1t the flames had
jumped from story to story, above and be.
low, and seizsd speedily upon the yery
inhamable stutT with which the floors were
loaded. A second and third alarm was
turned In, and twenty engines were soou
working upon the building.
Despite the earlinees OF the hour q large
crowd coon gathered and watched the work
OF destruction. Tho large stand pipe was
soon erected and poured a heavy strcam
into the top story. The floors began to
fall within three-quarters Of an hour al.
tor the start OF the fire. Flremen say that
they have never before seen 10 rapid and
complete destruction OF a large estab.
lishment. The fire was out at about 5
O'Clock, and owing TO the exertions Of the
firemen very little II any damage was done
to the adjoining buildings, which arc oc.
cupied by wholesale iswelry aud milli.

made until later in the day, but 1t Is sup
posed to be about Sl50, 900 to $4,000 OH

The insurance is said to be small.
Mr.. McGrath, the owner Of the stock OF
wall paper, declared this morning that
the loss would reach one half million dol
lars. 1t was probably. the largest stock
carried by any one firm in America. The
insurance will fall short OF the loss by
5000 900.
The loss on the stock is estimated by
the insurance people at from 100000 to
$500 900. The only sscertained insurance

mercial interests and trades. The following
resolution was introduced. "Resolved, That

regards as advantageous to the mutual pros.
perity Of the United States and Canada the

London dispatches Of Monday say that the
financial secretary Of India has advised the
government Of the discovery Of IN immense
amount Of treasure, estimated at over e25.-
100000, which had been secreted In the palace
Gwallor by the late Maharjsh. The treasure
had been sunk in pits under vaults beneath
the .enana, and the secret entrusted to . few
confidential servants. The secretary was
present when the treasury was unearthed.
After removing the earth to . depth Of six
feet the workmen revealed great nagstones,
and beneath these several pits filed to the
brim with silver, chiefly freshly coined rupees.
In each pit was = plate recording the amount
Of treasure and the names Of the officials who
assisted in secreting It. The Indian govern.
ment has taken the hoard as q loan from
young Maharjah. The native papers protest
against this action. They say that had
Maharjah been an adult, instead of under
. regency controlled by the government, he
would never have invested his whole wealth
in Indian securities. The question will be
raised in parliament rs to whether the .sin.
vestment" be not another name for seizure.
